Abstract:

In Brief:

We investigated the impact of liver magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for detecting hepatic metastasis unsuspected on staging computed tomography (CT) in 863 adults with newly diagnosed colorectal cancer. The diagnostic yield of liver MRI for hepatic metastasis unsuspected by CT was very low in patients who showed “too-small-to-characterize” hepatic lesions or metastasis-negative hepatic findings on CT, unlike in those who had suspicious hepatic findings on CT.

Abstract:

In Brief:

We aim to determine the imaging findings for differentiating malignant and benign BD-IPMNs (branch-duct type intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms) and their diagnostic value through meta-analysis. Pooled diagnostic odds ratio with which to suggest malignant BD-IPMN was the highest for the presence of mural nodule, followed by main pancreatic duct dilatation, defined as diameter 5 to 7 mm, thick septum/wall, and cyst size greater than 3 cm.
